NOTES.

wheat, or buys any class of supplies
Is interested in the prosperity and
growth Of Duluth.
| In consideration of the neyerfaillng
! interest which the Tribune has al
ways manifested toward Duluth,
this paper about half expected that
upon his recent visit to that city its
editor would be presented with a
corner lot or some such substantial
token OF appreciation by the Board of
Trade or Chamber of Commerce. He
got no lot and had to rustic to even
get enough to eat.
The entire trip was pleasant. We
met no one who was at all dissatisfied
or disappointed with any feature con-
nected with the meeting or the ex-
cursion and we saw nobody who
could point out any person who was
willing to say that he knew or had
heard of any one remarking that he
knew of any person being cognizant
| of any one being dissatisfied or dis
appointed.
| One of Anoka's orators said, 1--WE
shall punish any editor severely who
is caught paying for anything here
to-day" After moments reflection
we concluded to get d suit of clothes
and an umbrella, but--we found

During the carriage ride about the
beautiful city of Anoka an editor
| asked, why don't you get up fire
and give us some amusement" The
answer came promptly-"Name the
building and Well touch it off" In
less than two minutes afterwards the
fire alarm sounded and a planning
mill was seen to be in flames. This
is what DR.. Murphy would probably
call "co-incidence."
Brothers Herbert, Hoard and Heat
wole, three leading spirits were neces-
sarily absent and were greatly missed.
Oyer 10000 tons of iron ore were
shipped from Tower last year. A
greater quantity is being shipped this
year. Of this ore 50 per cent is pure
iron.
The editors forgot to act on the
| resolutions. They were formulated
however and will appear in the re-
cord. Everybody will he suitably
thanked for courtesies extended and
when the record appears each Will
point and say-"Them's my senti-
ments." This results in great saving
of time.
Fl. P. Hall worked as hard as ever.
He prevented anybody's getting lost,
saw that everybody was provided for
and in fact made himself indispen
sable. He deserves the thanks of the
Association for his untiring labors.
| Ell. A. Castle, the "noblest Roman
of them ALL" retires from editorial
labor. He. has accumulated a million
or so and don't have to write Tor the
benefit of delinquent subscribers any
more. His place in the ranks will be
hard to fill.
Bachelor editors were reasonably
scarce. Our good looking brother of
the paper-up-the-street would have
been in great demand among the
young ladies if he had only torn him
self away from business cares and be-
came one of excursionists. With this
pointer we think he will need no urg.
ing to be on hand next year.
The editors for once succeeded in
getting their names in papers other
than their own.
Maj. Newson was in his element as
usual. ....
We had pleasant chat with G.. p
MaSinnis at Duluth.
Each member of the party goes
home fully convinced that the miner
al resources of Minnesota have here
tofore been greatly underestimated
| Joel P. Heatwole was chosen presl'
dent because of his popularity, wei
known abilities and-goOd looks
| Anoka is a substantial, thriving
enterprising and beautiful city. IT.
people are lavish in hospitality ant
will occupy pleasant place in thu
memory of the editor for years tt
come.
How the people along the route die
enjoy seeing the editors eat!-!--!
